This is new with RC2. When I use a template to create a new spreadsheet, I
can no longer make changes and then save it as the same template
(shift+F11) until after I save it (ctrl+S) first. I get an "Error writing
document Untitled1 as template: General Error. General input/output error."
This is true even if I save it (ctrl+S) as Untitled1.ods. I hope this is
a bug, and not by design.
As you are not subscribed you may not have seen that:

The correct procedure is to do this File > Templates > Save. Name
the template and click OK. This places the template in the My Templates

procedure. When asked if you want to overwrite the file, answer yes. I
have been doing this since 1.1.0 of possibly 1.0.3.
While you can save the file as a template and place it in the
correct folder, it is easier to do so as I outlined it above. It is
also listed in Help: Use "templates;creating document templates" as
the search term.

The procedure Dan describes is precisely what I have been doing
successfully since 1.0 also. In my original post I used the keyboard
shortcuts to distinguish between the two types of "Save." Unfortunately,
this procedure no longer works for me with RC2. I have tried it both at
work and at home and get the same result. It also makes no difference
whether the template I am modifying was originally created with RC2 or
was converted from an earlier version. Incidentally, this is on
WinXPproSP2.
By the way, CPH, why do you think I am not subscribed to the user
group? As far as I know I am, and I have been receiving the posts to
the group for many months.
